Community Centre, 2-4 Downpatrick Street, Crossgar, Co Down, BT30 9EA

A large late Georgian style house of approximately 1840–50, now serving as a community centre, prominently sited at the corner of Downpatrick Street and Killyleagh Street at the northern end of Crossgar village. The building is constructed with a rubble façade and brick dressings, with substantial modern extensions added to the rear.

The symmetrical west-facing rubble front façade features a central panelled timber double door flanked by narrow sidelights with decorative tracery and panelled aprons. The doorway is topped with an elliptical fanlight displaying double spoke tracery. All front façade openings are dressed with brick, though some bricks have been recently replaced. Flanking the doorway are two sash windows with Georgian six-over-six panes and security grills to the left, and two similar windows with five additional sash windows to the first floor on the right. A traditional projecting sign is positioned to the far right of the first floor. The first floor windows largely retain their original brick dressings, while ground floor replacements appear recent.

The north elevation comprises the gable of the main building to the right and the long façade of a single storey flat-roofed return. The gable is rubble constructed, with the lower half of the façade appearing to have been recently rendered. A small high-level sash window with security grill is situated to the left on the ground floor of the gable. The return façade is rendered and contains a relatively small double sash window to the right.

The south elevation consists of the main building's gable to the left and the façade of a large two storey flat-roofed extension. The gable is finished in lined render and incorporates a recessed fire escape doorway to the first floor with accompanying metal stair. The extension façade is similarly line rendered, with two small windows with modern frames to the first floor and a fire escape-like doorway with a large plain-sheeted double door to the ground floor.

At the rear, a large two storey extension dominates the left and centre portion, featuring a large modern window to the ground floor and two small windows to the first floor. To its right is the long single storey return, rendered with two plain sheeted doors and two small windows on its south façade. An exposed section of the main building's rear façade at the top right retains rubble finish, with a blocked-up window opening to the right and a recently inserted window with modern frame to the left.

The gabled roof is covered in natural slate with two brick chimney stacks at the gables and rendered parapets. Metal rainwater goods predominate.

Historical evidence indicates the building matches a structure shown on the 1834 Ordnance Survey map, though the 1838 Crossgar valuation plan suggests the site was occupied by a longer building. The present property corresponds to that shown on the 1860 Ordnance Survey map and appears in circa 1863 valuation returns as the property of James Cleland, possibly the owner of much of the village and builder of Tobar Mhuire House. The building is therefore certainly pre-1860, though not definitively pre-1834.

The property may have originally incorporated a shop; a mid-19th century shop front, positioned on the left-hand side, remained until the early 1970s. For most of the twentieth century from approximately 1915 to 1972, the building was owned by the Bassett family, with Charles Bassett listed in contemporary directories as a publican and hardware and general merchant. The Bassetts vacated around 1972, when the shop front was removed and the entire property was converted to a public house called The Hunter's Moon. This closed in the mid-1990s, followed by brief periods as a tea room and shop, before conversion to a community centre in 1999.

The building was refurbished in 1999.
